Good luck making your own absinthe... Trust me it isn't the same as the real thing. And in no way does absinthe look like that stuff on eurotrip, or does it make you see green faries... It just gets you fucked up with minimal effort, in a good way. I drank it in the Phillipines, good times were had, but alas no hallucinations...
